As we head into the final stretch of the year, Clubs SA is thrilled to share some highlights and look ahead to an exciting 2026.
We recently wrapped up a hugely successful Clubs SA Roadshow in Mt Gambier, with over 40 club representatives joining us for a day of learning, connection and community. A heartfelt thank you to the Mt Gambier RSL for their warm hospitality, and to all the members and corporate partners who made the trip and contributed to such a valuable session. Your engagement and commitment to strengthening South Australian clubs is what makes these roadshows so impactful.
With Christmas fast approaching, the Clubs SA team is deep into planning a diverse and exciting calendar of events, training and development opportunities for 2026. We’re working hard to deliver even more value to our members next year, with expanded programs, new workshops, and greater opportunities to network, learn and grow.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support and dedication to your clubs and communities. We look forward to finishing the year strong and stepping into 2026 with great momentum.
Have a wonderful month ahead.
